I put a Weiand intake on my 1960 Phoenix dart 318 4bbl, it killed low end torque. I put the factory 4bbl manifold back on it, and it was a much better driving car. I would look for a factory 4bbl intake. My $0.02

I've found it way easier to retrofit a '70s cruise control. You need the cruise control unit, the throttle linkage add on, the cable mount, the cruise brake light switch, the cruise control turn signal wand, wiring and the 2 piece spedo cable. I don't know when they went to the larger...

On a '66, the input shaft is the same as late model, I don't have experience with push button trans, (65 and older)

It could be a hole in a line, that will let air in, but not drip. My friend had this happen. My $.02

Just swap the stater support in the front pump to the '67 up, and it will fit a newer converter. I do this to every '66 I work on

the small block (first gen HEMI, Polly and LA) and big block have different bell housings.

short answer:Trans, exhaust, radiator and motor mounts It may need stiffer torsion bars too.

Buy stock in Goodyear It will convert rubber to smoke very efficiently! looks really great

Finally reassembling the '66 500's front suspension. After misplacing the lower control arm nut and panicking, I found it today. The T bars are in place and tomorrow the rest goes together. The disk brake lower ball joints are in OK shape, good enough for the 400 miles it gets driven per year...

That's awesome, thanks to both of you. My old guy brain over reacted, it looks like I'm good. Thanks again!

H all, I finally have a press so I did my LCA bushings on my '66 Monaco. I started to install the LCA today and it didn't look right. Should the stud be pressed all the way until the lip touches the inner bushing metal? I'm thinking it should. Here is how it is now, that doesn't look right. We...

Maybe your vacuum advance was on a full time vacuum port and now it is on a timed port, making the idle timing lower that it was, causing it to have less idle torque. My $.02

The first thing, the kick down should not be at the limit at full throttle, start out with it relaxed at idle. First gear uses the forward clutch and the rear sprag unless you are in manual 1st, then it applies the rear band to allow for engine braking. second gear uses the forward clutch and...

Hopped in the '66 Monaco last night to go to Cruisin' Grand in Escondido and it wouldn't crank. New battery today and everything is back to normal. I got 10 years out of the old one, can't complain!

To use the '67 and later torque converter in the '66 trans, swap the stater support, and all the later TCs will work. It is the backside of the front pump, an easy swap. I've done it to all my '66 727s

Ring and pinion bearings usually change sounds between coasting and accelerating. My $.02

From personal experience with my 2 '66 Monacos (1 4 door 383 and my current 2 door 440), Getting the motor out from the trans is not hard, but mating the engine to the trans going back in is a PITA. I will always pull both together. (My $.02)

My '66 Monaco 500 has the wrong broadcast sheet!

I bought a '68 imperial air cleaner at a swap meet, it is the Holley size and the base fits perfectly under my factory dual snorkel '66 air cleaner lid. I tried a 4150 center hung carb and I had to heat up the base to clearance it for the needle and seat, not an issue with a Carter/Edelbrock...

The '66 CAP also had a green vacuum diverter that messed with the vacuum advance, one port was manifold vacuum, one has ported vacuum and the 3rs went to the distributor. California is so special, even in '66 they put clog devices on our cars.
